Highlights
Respawn Entertainment has made the battle pass for Season 19 of Apex Legends available for pre-order, allowing players to buy the primary reward track for next season early.
The pre-order edition of the battle pass includes a bonus of 50 stars, which is equal to 5 free levels. However, it's important to note that these bonus stars only contribute to the progress of the current Season 18 battle pass, and not the next season. This has left some players feeling confused and dissatisfied, particularly those who have already obtained all the cosmetic items from the Resurrection battle pass.
Apex Legends Season 19 battle pass is now available for pre-order, marking the end of Season 18. This early purchase option allows players to secure the primary reward track for the upcoming season. However, it's important to note that there is a bonus included which may cause confusion among potential buyers.
With Season 18 set to conclude on October 31, Apex Legends' Season 19, known as Ignite, will soon begin. Although there are still some details yet to be revealed, the developer has introduced Conduit as the newest Legend for the game. Additionally, Respawn Entertainment is implementing a number of changes to Ranked in Season 19, aimed at providing players with a more immersive experience. As expected, the game will also offer its traditional seasonal battle pass.
The developer of the game has made the battle pass available for pre-order, despite not revealing its content. Players can choose between the regular version or the premium bundle, both priced as usual. The pre-order edition of each pass includes 50 stars, equivalent to 5 levels for free. However, players have discovered that these free levels only apply to the Season 18 battle pass, not the upcoming one at the end of the month.
One Reddit user highlighted this change and sparked discussion among gamers about pre-ordering in-game content. Some players were confused by the developer's decision to apply the stars to the current battle pass instead of the upcoming season. While this would benefit players in obtaining remaining cosmetics for the Resurrection battle pass, those who have already unlocked all the cosmetics would not benefit. Additionally, some players expressed dissatisfaction with the purchase of the battle pass without first revealing its included Ignite cosmetics.
The Season 19 battle pass for the battle royale in Apex Legends holds much anticipation as to its offerings and how the community will receive its contents. If it follows the pattern established in previous seasons, players can expect a variety of new Legend skins, a reactive weapon skin, and additional smaller cosmetics like gun charms and Legend banners. Thankfully, we won't have to wait too long to catch a glimpse of these items, as the developer is likely to release a gameplay trailer before Season 19 launches. Hopefully, it lives up to the expectations of those who choose to pre-order the battle pass. Apex Legends is currently available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
